Scales

Here are a few scales that I found online that look like great deals. It is important to buy a scale that you like because after you step on it the first time you may hate it.

You’ll have to hear this to believe it!

The European Physician's Large Platform Scale. The European Physician’s Large Platform Scale.

With an extra-wide 12″ platform with textured dimpled foot pads for sure footing, this scale is designed by a 60 year-old award-winning company from France and is the same one preferred by medical professionals in Europe. The easy-to-read 8″-diam. dial is easy to view and displays weight in pounds and kilograms. The scale’s brushed all-metal body and heavy-duty spring components support 400 lbs. 19 1/2″ L x 12 1/4″ W x 5 1/4″ H. (15 lbs.)

The Digital Weight And Body Composition Scale. The Digital Weight And Body Composition Scale.

This is the digital scale that supports your health and fitness regimen by quickly and accurately measuring key body composition data in addition to precise weight readings. Unlike other measuring methods that require expensive, specialized equipment or submersion in water, the scale uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) (a harmless electrical impulse) to calculate body fat percentage, muscle mass, and body water within seconds after you step on the 12 3/4 x 13 3/4″ glass platform. Three modes (normal, child, and athlete) let you adjust the scale’s sensitivity for greatest accuracy, and it estimates the daily caloric intake needed to maintain your current body composition. The scale can store data for up to 10 individuals, making it easy to track the entire family’s progress. The 2″ high LCD panel features a dual-line readout that displays weight and body composition results simultaneously in bright 3/4″ high numerals. The scale has a 400 lb. (180 kg) capacity and displays weights in 1/4-lb. (0.1 kg) increments. Four AAA batteries (included) provide convenient cordless operation. 14 1/2″ W x 13 3/4″ L x 3″ D. (4 lbs.)

Digital Luggage Scale Digital Luggage Scale

A portable luggage scale that enables you to pack smart, and not pay overweight charges.

The Best Physician's Beam Scale. The Best Physician’s Beam Scale.

This beam scale proved to be the best in tests by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it is consistently the most accurate. An independent industrial weighing systems company was commissioned to calibrate the scales prior to testing and this beam scale was the most precise, only deviating from the actual weight by 0.35% on average, unlike lesser models with inaccuracy rates up to 1.2% (2 lbs. for a 180-lb. person). Scoring highest for consistency, the scale was the only one that recorded three spot-on measurements of seven different weights, while the unit that placed second failed to record even one exact measurement. The scale has a 500-lb. capacity and measures in 1/4-lb. increments, the poise bar rotates to show measurements in Imperial or metric, a 24″ to 84″ height rod slides out of the unit to allow simultaneous height and weight measurements, and the engraved markings are easy to read. The scale is made from heavy-duty steel and assembles in 10 minutes. 57 1/4″ H x 10 2/3″ W x 20 1/2″ L (39 lbs.)
